Nike Paris Pick-Ups

Monday, May 1st, 2006 | Posted in France, Nike



On a recent trip to Paris I checked out the Nike Paris, Nike store. The store has a massive collection of sports apparel and shoes. The store clerks are extremely helpful (speaking English, Spanish, German, and of course French) although they are very busy because of the huge amount of customers.

While at Nike Paris I wanted to buy the exclusive T-shits there but they cost 28 Euros so I had to settle for some new Kicks.

These are the Air Morgan's part of the NKE 6.0 line, Baroque Brown colorway. I paid 70 Euros for these.

FootLocker Bordeaux

Friday, March 10th, 2006 | Posted in France, Sneaker Shops



The Footlocker in Bordeaux can be found on rue Port Dijeaux about 75 feet from the major city square Place Gambetta.   The service at the location is up to US standards for the franchise: horrible.   I found the staff to be unresponsive and rude.   If you want good service I would suggest going to the smaller sneaker shops on rue Sainte Catherine.   However you will not find the amazing selection that footlocker provides.   Whether you are looking for Jordan's, AF1's, limited kicks as well as Adidas, Pumas and Reeboks.   The most impressive aspect of the store is its huge selection of Nike Max Plus product…many of it exclusive to Footlocker. Unfortunately the sales people did allow me to take pictures of the shoes…so you will have to use your imagination.
